You can try to glue back. If very unique or special you can take it to a lampshade maker shop for repair.
Not sure exactly how it's breaking away, but maybe some invisible thread could be used to reattach it.
I have the same problem. I found a YouTube video that I think might help...

Use fishing string rather than thread. Thread will dry rot fast and then you end up doing the same job again.
